Cozy Cabin Convenient to the Lake
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay (again) at Oar House! The cabin has everything we needed for a relaxing time and is so convenient to Glendale Lake. We took our kayaks on the lake almost every day during our stay, and enjoyed the cozy convenience of the cabin as home base. We certainly plan to return for future stays. Thanks to our host for such a gem!

Getaway
Enjoyed visiting Oar House. Had everything that we needed for our stay. Beautiful place next to Prince Galitzin state park. Weather was chilly so planning to return when we can enjoy the fire pit and outside grilling. Thanks to Andy for sharing his place with us.

Hidden Gem
We really enjoyed our stay for the weekend. Although the weather didn't cooperate to use the fire pit, it looked amazing. The house had everything in it that was advertised and more.

Perfect cabin get-a-way at the Oar House!
Beautiful cabin! Just like the pictures. We adored the decorations and attention to detail. They even had corn hole boards with the “Oar House” logo on them. All the railings were truly oars! It is such a cute idea!! There were plenty of towels and necessities to make our stay very comfortable. The beds were even comfy and did not squeak. Very spacious!! The property is private but yet you have neighbors. A cute screened in porch/sunroom on the front was perfect to enjoy the morning coffee with animal friends crossing by. It was close to the lake and all activities we wanted to do locally. The host was super helpful in planning our weekend get a way and very responsive.
